Machas turns seven!

Machas was born on the 14th of August 2011 out of the determination of Valentina Guarneri and Rita Comi to blend the experience of an artist agent and the expertise of a communication director. With just one laptop, one iPad and £68 to its name, the company grew exponentially year after year to become an international hub for outstanding creative talents, working with brands all around the globe.

To mark this special occasion, we wanted to celebrate what defines us: creativity and passion for outstanding art with an international vision — and we invited the amazing Becha, who was the first artist to join Machas in 2011, to work her magic on an exclusive new piece.

“Seven years ago, I was an artist who wanted to be free to do what I loved the most. Soon after quitting my regular job, I received an invitation from Machas. Well, don’t tell me that Universe doesn’t have a plan. Since then, a lot of things happened. We grew from our successes, as well as from our mistakes. But when I put aside all the things that make our relationship professional, there are still so many personal moments, an infinite amount of understanding and above all, support. Thank you for that and cheers to many years to come!” — Becha

We would like to thank all the Machas artists (Kelly Anna, Becha, James Braithwaite, Hélène Builly, Jonathan Calugi, Miguel Camprubí López, Fernando Chamarelli, Olaf Hajek, Obinna Mgbado, Ray Oranges, Jeff Rogers, Tooco, Ufo5 and Wanda Barcelona) for joining our team and working side by side everyday. Thanks also to the Machas artist network for the excellent projects we have delivered, as well as the clients we’ve had the pleasure to collaborate with.

Thank you all for joining us on this journey knowing that the best is yet to come!
